NHS Redress Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on NHS Redress Bill [HL].
The Secretary of State will be aware, I am sure, that clauses 1, 5 and 14 all provide for order-making powers. They deal with the power to establish a redress scheme, the duty to consider its application, and the question of complaints. Why, under clause 16, are those order-making powers subject to the negative procedure of the House, rather than to its affirmative counterpart?
